  Hello Again =) I’m such a novice that I’ve worked with so few types of fabrics. I’m basically in practice mode so I rarely spend more than $1-3/meter and have only used poly cotton broad cloth, polyester chiffon and china silk (coat lining). I have had no problems with the polyester chiffon running, but i don’t know about higher quality chiffon. Sorry! I wish I knew, let me know how chiffon works for you when you get to it!

  Hello! Thank you so much for your wonderful comments! As for the chiffon, I have to admit, being my first time working with it, it is so far the most challenging material I’ve worked with. It’s completely worth it because the material is so beautiful. If you plan on working with it, I suggest to use fray check on the edges of the fabric as soon as you cut it to keep it from fraying before you get to the step of finishing off the raw edges and seam allowances, it will make your life so much easier ;) otherwise it frays like crazy.

  Wow! You’ve posted a lot of very beautiful creations in such a short time! I’m curious to know what type of fabric you used for the two jackets?
